ELEKTRON PLC

(the "Company")

 

Result of Annual General Meeting ("AGM") and Change of Name

 

The Company is pleased to announce that all resolutions proposed at its AGM held on 28 July 2011 were duly passed.

 

Resolution number 5 was to re-appoint Geoff Spink as a director.  As announced on 12 May 2011, Mr Spink is stepping down from the Board and was therefore no longer offering himself for re-election.  Consequently, this resolution was not proposed.

 

One of the resolutions passed was the proposed change of name of the Company from Elektron plc to Elektron Technology plc.  The change of name is expected to become effective today.   In connection with trading on the London Stock Exchange, the Company is expected to trade under its new name from 8.00am on Monday 1 August 2011.  The Company will continue to trade under the TIDM code EKT and the ISIN will remain unchanged.

 

The Company will shortly be changing its website address to http://www.elektron-technology.com
